did i want to go to seminary or to law school? and for family reasons, my husband wanted to relocate to connecticut, i wound up in law school rather than in seminary. and was delighted when i discovered that i could do a joint degree with the divinity school at yale and thought i had been trading off one interest against the other and discovered thanks to the availability of interdisciplinary training that i could actually combine my interests. and so i started in around 1982. i'm in my 0th year -- my 30th year of working in this field and find myself still fascinated, still intrigued. and dedicated to thinking deeply about the relationship between law and religion. >> host: where was this picture from on the cover of "the spirit of the law"? >> guest: oh, this is outside the united states supreme court, and it was taken on a day that a challenge to the pledge of allegiance -- not the requirement that students say it, but the insertion of the words "under god" into the pledge of allegiance which happened, actually, in the 1950s in

and was there anything proposed this week or the new york law, executive orders, the laws that the president is proposing, anything that will keep people safe that will keep this from happening again? >> if you're talking about the president's proposals on school safety, i'm glad that he acknowledged to have an armed presence in our school systems to keep the children safe, but the proposals were totally inadequate to accomplish that objective. you know, on the school safety side which i am looking at, you looked at funding for the cops program which means that money can be diverted away from the schools, might not even wind up there in helping the schools provide a more secure environment and in terms of what's been provided to congress on the gun control side, all i can say, that's not going to help keep our children safer and i want to look for solutions in the schools to have better technology, have the better architecture, have the armed trained presence there, to really protect the children and keep our parents having confidence in our schools. >> sean: they keep saying gun-free school
